Beautifully reimagined 4 bed 3 bath single level ranch style home on an expansive lot with a pool and grassy yard surrounded by mature trees and hedges for maximum privacy. Upon entry you're greeted with a dreamy view of the yard and pool through glass slider doors that open almost entirely, spanning across the living and dining room. Originally built by noted architect Reinhard Lesser of Victor Gruen & Associates - who were partners with Frank Gehry - the home was lovingly renovated with high quality finishes by the current owners all while keeping the homes inherent charm intact. Stunning arches and high ceilings lead to a spacious chef's kitchen with ample cabinet space including a floor to ceiling pantry, modern appliances including a new fridge, two wine fridges, a double oven, warming drawer, and a double drawer dishwasher. The kitchen also features French sliding glass doors to the grassy lawn. The attached two car garage is conveniently located right off the kitchen and features finished floors and plenty of storage space. A bright hallway lined with windows and adorned with herringbone white oak floors leads you to two of the guest bedrooms, a full bath with a door to the exterior allowing easy access for guests while using the pool, as well as the primary suite at the end of the hall. The bedrooms have original French doors with plantation shutters and pool views, creating the ultimate indoor outdoor flow from each bedroom. The primary bedroom has a pitched wood beamed ceiling, a custom built walk in closet with a hidden safe, a beautiful bathroom with a dual vanity, soaking tub, automatic skylight, speakers in the shower, and French doors opening to the pool. The 4th bedroom is separated by the living spaces, perfect for an office or a peaceful bedroom for guests to stay. The current owners did many upgrades and renovations including white oak wood floors throughout, new roof, owned solar panels, updated electrical & plumbing, new HVAC, new wood pool deck, new windows and doors, new pool equipment, and CAT5 wiring for faster wifi and connectivity. Other features include a Tesla charger, in ground spa, smart home systems to control your home remotely, interior and exterior surround sound speakers, ring cameras, and more. Close proximity to Encino and Westridge hiking trails, Lanai Elementary School, and all the best restaurants and shops on Ventura Boulevard.
